    Russ: you had to be pretty quick on the draw and glued to your computer to win this one. (It lasted all of 15 minutes.) Hey, that sounds like you!

    Don't beat yourself up, Russ. It only lasted 15 minutes!

    I'd say it was worth a shot for the money.

    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

    UNBELIEVABLE!!!...An undertaker won't be able to remove the smile from that bidder!

    I found the auction because I was checking the seller's feedback and past sales. They had the usual "consignment/estate/blah blah" stuff in a listing I was interested in. The "we don't know anything" crap. So, I was checking their credibility before bidding. Turns out, they really DON'T know crap. image

    So, for starters, it's a $200+ score on the set plus that sweet 'looking' cameo Frankie!!! image

    Maybe, someone will score a box of 100 unopened GSAs for only $5000 or so........ please God, let it be me!! image
